Use differentials to approximate sqrt(25...

Use differentials to approximate `sqrt(25. 2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`y= f(x) = sqrtx`
`/_ y = f(x +/_ x) - f(x)`
`x= 25 & /_ x= 0.2`
`=> f(x + /_ x) = f(x) + /_ y`
`f(x) = f(25) = 5`
`/_y = dy = (dy/dx)/_x = (d(sqrtx))/(dx) xx 0.2 `
`/_ y = 1/(2 sqrtx) xx 0.2`
`= 0.1/5 = 1/50`
